Last night I caught up with Jack Bauer via episodes of 24 . I had 4 recorded already and then there was the one that aired last night for a total of 5 shows. The oatmeal cookies you see on the left were what fueled the start of this television marathon. Julie made them on Sunday but since we had so much other food to eat on hand, we only ate a few cookies while they were still hot and then the cookies just got ignored.

It really is quite a show though two people have told me that Season 6 isn't as good as Season 5. Damn. I'm operating solo this weekend since Ren is bonding with her kids what w...
